Four Year Plan Favored for UN Reno Medical School
A feasibility study concludes converting the University of Nevada Reno medical school to a four year, degree granting program is feasible and favorable. Dean Dr George Smith says the change would have no budget impact and notes a $2.4 million federal grant if timed by fall 1977. The report, prepared for President Max Milam by a four medical school deans committee, lists four main conclusions and urges action due to federal funding patterns and recruitment needs.
